Dhansai Laboratory

PRADIP Pad a Solace for Diabetic Foot

After the advent of Sensitometer-VPT by “Dhansai Laboratory” the spectrum of Diabetic Sensory Polyneuropathy became evident. The people with high risk of ulceration remained vulnerable. As the motor neuropathy alters the shape of the foot, plantar surface develops high-pressure areas. These pressures can be as high as 1500 kilo Pascal. This is nearly 15 times atmospheric pressure. These high pressures literally crush the tissue between the bone and the skin under it. The person with an insensate foot doesn’t realize it and in time develops an ulcer there.

But measurement of these high pressure points and then customizing the footwear by redistribution of pressure remained a big problem. The traditional Harris mat used for leprosy patients, was highly inadequate as it gives only qualitative information and has a limited range measurable. That is to say it cannot read above 250 to 300 hundred Kilo Pascal. And bellow 300 Kilo Pascal even barefoot walking won’t develop injury. The newer variants lacks even in qualitative information due to poor resolution. And the high-end foot scanners are not economically viable in smaller cities and district levels. The “PRADIP Pad” invented by D K Kelkar, chief scientist from “DHANSAI Laboratory” provided the solution. It has the high resolution of 645 points per square inch, which is the highest world over. It gives both qualitative and quantitative information. As it is devised essentially for persons with diabetes, a unique system of disbursement of customized footwear is developed around it. This economical pad can be used even at village level and the foot impressions are sent to company’s Mumbai hub via E-Mail or Post. The impression can be taken by a technician and will be analyzed by an expert, so it does not burden the physician. The experts at the hub process and analyze the same and send back a report by the same route. Thec clinician can show the same to the person concerned and order customized footwear.

New Technology in India for the first time; water out of thin air

Reliance International Mktg Inc proudly presents a unique revolutionising water generating machine “Vapaire”, a U S patented product that transforms air into pure drinking water. According to Ravindra Wadkar, CEO, Reliance International Mktg envisions a world where no one knows the agony of watching their child die of thirst.”

The company believes that there are enough resources in the world right now to bring our vision to reality. The company has taken exclusive rights for India, as pure drinking water is our need and has sent a proposal to the Indian Government to provide pure drinking water to all, in which the company has committed full time support. There are 1.2 billion people who lack safe water to drink. A child dies of water related diseases every eight seconds.

  • Produces water directly from the air.
  • Eliminates the need for tap or bottled water.
  • One half the cost of bottled water.
  • Free of bacteria and chemicals.
  • An effective dehumidifier.

  • The unit can be used in flood disaster prone areas.

Vapaire produces 30-40 litres daily of 99.9 per cent of pure water continuously without worrying about plumbing, water contamination or water-borne diseases. The unit produces water from the humidity around while purifying the air at the same time. This machine is a better healthier alternative to tap or bottled water for Indian markets.

It is environmental and pocket friendly, and consumes only about 3-4 units per day. Water produced from Vapaire is pure because it travels through two air filters before being collected in a vessel inside the machine, where water is further filtered. The machine can be installed anywhere, wherever you need water, at home, office, factories, hotels, shopping malls, schools, colleges, theatres, airports, railways, villages, rural areas, agricultural fields, military camps etc. The company plans to get larger units (1000 litres to 10,000 litres) for industrial purposes and for drought prone villages. The company have seven different domestic models to choose from according to customer needs.
